The Prodigal Daughter Returns

On the bus yesterday,  this boy (aged around 9) and his mum were sitting across me  The boy told his mum he had just spotted The Shard (the tallest building in the UK). His mum doubted he could see the building so far away. I secretly agreed with his mum. As the bus dtove on, the boy said he could no longer see the building. At some point, he boy pointed to a building in the distance and said it was The Shatd. This time, I secretly agreed with him. I was impressed he could recognise.it from that distance. He told his mum how tall the building was. He seemed to know a lot about the building.  As the bus got closer to the City, The Shard became clearer. Before I got off the bus, I told the boy's mum that I was very impressed rhat her son had spotted the building from such a distance. Today this photo of The Shard, that I took eight years ago while travelling on the train, popped up in my Facebook Memories.  How amazing is that! 😊😳 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_...

When I got home from my friend's wedding party, I was still buzzing and I couldn't sleep. I decided to watch this singing talent show on my laptop to see real singers in action. 😄 Suddenly, I had this painful cramp on my left calf.  I got out of bed, and kept massaging the calf and calling on the name of Jesus. Within a minute, the pain was gone. I went back to bed and continued watching the talent show. The devil doesn't like people to be in joy. He'll send something to derail you or try to steal your joy. I always use that opportunity to glorify God. At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, including painful cramps. Thank you, Jesus. ❤️  ---- Related Bible verses: "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.

At my friend's wedding party, I was singing to Whitney Houston's song "How Will I Know If He Really Loves Me?"   Later, while I was waiting for my tube home, this guy walked right by me. On the back of his orange jacket was the word, "Whitney." Nice one, God, I know how much you really love me. 😆❤️

After my friend invited me to her church wedding, I started thinking about what to wear. I didn't think I had anything suitable in my wardrobe. It would mean buying something new.  I had an idea to ask my flatmate if she had anything I could borrow for a wedding. She showed me a few dresses for me to consider. which didn't fit or looked right. Finally, she brought out this dress with glitter. I knew it was the One. When I tried it on, it fit perfecly. I also had sandals with glitter to go with the dress. (On the day of the wedding, I decided to wear ankle boots instead). My flatmate also thought I needed to wear a bracelet which she loaned me. I already had the right earrings to go with the bracelet. (See photo below) My flatmate also gave me a hand bag as a gift which  I thought would go perfectly with my coat. Next, what to get my friend as a wedding gift in my budget. I could get vouchers so she can buy what she wants. The day before the wedding, I had an idea to check this...

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love." 1 John 4: 18 ---- During my bus journey, this woman got on. I noticed she had a natural short Afro hair and her hair colour was similar to mine. I thought it suited her. She sat right in front of me and took her phone out. After a while when she looked up, I asked her what colour her hair was. She said it was a combination of copper and another, which she had mixed herself. I told her mine was copper bought from the shops. I told her I liked her hair colour and her short hair suited her. I asked her how long she'd had her hair short. She said 10 years and it gave her a lot of freedom.  I told her I've had mine cropped since 1992 which she found amazing. I said in those days there weren't many women with my kind of hair. My friend said the moment she got on the bus she noticed my hair and thought it really suited me, b...

Some highlights from a museum I worked at recently. I loved it. It was like being reunited with old friends from the past. 😊 The vibe was very positive.  It reminded me of attending a convention where all the visitors and staff are happy being there. I hope to work there again sometime next year when they are open to the public.  I give thanks to God for giving me this opportunity. ❤️ For more information about this museum.

During our morning briefing, our manager told us we could use the lockers to store our stuff, but we needed to use a Pound coin to lock it.  As I didn't have any cash on me, I asked if I could borrow a Pound off someone. A colleague offered me the Pound. I was very grateful. After our shift finished,  I returned the coin, but my colleague told me to keep it until the last day of our contract. Before going back to work, I started rummaging in the rucksack I usually carry and I found a Pound coin. Good, I can return my colleague's coin. When I arrived at work, I saw my colleague. After we exchanged greetings he said, "Today, I'm the one withut a Pound coin." "No worries," I said." I found a coin in my bag so you can have yours back." Thank you, God. ❤️.
